James Brett 172cm said on 5/Mar/19Braun can give a shorter impression than Sid

Xpac99 said on 2/Mar/19Do you think is taller? Peak sid or braun strowman

DaveBern said on 26/Feb/19Sid's leanness and posture made him look like 6'8'', but I think that's an illusion and he was more like an everyday full 6'6''. He always seemed taller than Hogan though. Deceptive.

Canson said on 21/Feb/19@James172: he may ease into 6’5 range today but it’s likely only as low as Taker may drop 6’5.5-6’6 range. Peak Sid strong 6’6 however

James Brett 172cm said on 20/Feb/19Well if he’s 6ft6 with shoes on he’s the tallest 6’5 guy I have ever seen.

James Brett 172cm said on 18/Feb/19Rob are you still unsure on 6ft6 3/4 for his peak?

Editor Rob

In his mugshot, I struggle to imagine him that tall, actually he could have shrunk a bit I suppose. I know he could look taller than Hogan by over an inch easily.

Xpac99 said on 16/Feb/19Rob upgrade sid at 6ft 6 3/4

Jordan87 said on 8/Feb/19SId's Mug Shot him at 6'5.75" with SHoes on. He is not 6'6". He is a solid 6'5" guy. 6'6.5? No way !

MikeV10 said on 3/Feb/19Hey Rob , do you think its possible to upgrade Sid's peak height to 6'6,75. I think he was at least a 2,00m guy in Prime .

Editor Rob

I think it's probably more realistic, he could pull off looking near 6ft 7 half the time.

Canson said on 27/Jan/19@184guy: he can even give off a 6’2” impression at times but because of his posture. Similar to undertaker looking 6’5 or less to some on his page but he still is near enough 6’6” to claim it at least In my opinion. I agree Hulk still looks 6’3” range standing straight. 6’3.5 is likely high for his low but 6’3.25 is decent. And I don’t completely rule out 6’2.75. Rob’s 6’3” listing is reasonable as he isn’t much higher than that if at all. But I would say height loss for someone 6’5 range at a low probably could be up to an inch with a long torso. Extreme lows could be less though

James Brett said on 23/Jan/19Rob could have this horrific leg injury caused height loss for Sid?

If he really was near 6'6 , like 6'5.75 so he could have been one of those guys with a daily loss of 1''+ . If you look some recents pics of his torso , seems to be pretty compact and shifted compared to 30 years ago . Nowdays he seems to be anywhere in the 6'2.5-6'3.25 range . Probably more 6'3 or over than under , but it depends on his posture .

Canson said on 22/Jan/19@184guy: I think Hogan 6’7” was in boots. I don’t doubt 6’6” out of bed and 6’5.25 at a low perhaps even a stretch of 6’6.5 and 6’5.5 but I doubt ever 6’7”. Guys that size probably lose around 3/4” maybe a full inch best case. He definitely wasn’t less than 6’5” at his peak though and still looks 6’3” today. 6’3.5 is arguable at times as is 6’3,25

The very max that Hogan could have been was 6'6 ( probably 197cm) . 6'7 only maybe straight out of bed as he had a long spine and shattered it in the last decades.
Sid could have been 6'7 because he looked pretty close to Undertaker

Yes 6ft6.5 I thought looked too low with undertaker. I guess though Sid might have had better posture than Taker

John Eobertson said on 6/Jan/19He was 6ft8 at his peak. Hogan was 6ft6.5 flat foot at his peak. Remember when Hogan first faced Sid the hulkster already had lost height. Hogan may have even been 6ft7 in the late 70s before he ruined his spine with the leg drop and lifting Andre (said himself he felt a pop in that spot).

Ozzy said on 27/Dec/18In a video on youtube,an interview with the late Leon White (Vader). Stated Sid was a legitimate 6 foot 7 guy. I think he certainly was at his peak. Always stood tall. Given he was billed 6'9" most times with wrestling always adding 2" of course.

James B 172cm said on 17/Oct/18Yeah he did look about 6ft7 flat with undertaker I would say......... but Sid does always did have very good posture whereas perhaps Taker was standing more relaxed in there Wrestlemania stare down. Sid stood with better posture than Kevin Nash too making the height difference look smaller.

Bulan said on 7/Oct/18Sid and Undertaker always looked around the same height, with either sometimes edging the other out. Assuming Sid wasn't wearing lifts, and Undertaker really was 6'7.5" (as listed here), Sid had to be at least 6'7".

Pdoggy said on 21/Sep/18Well if that mug shot is accurate he must have worn some lifts in the ring.

Pdoggy said on 17/Sep/18Sorry Rob I'm going to have to disagree with you on this one always thought Sid was closer to 6'7" barefoot. 6'8" even in shoes not 6'6".5. Mamun pic says 6'8" That is why he measured up so well to Nash.

RP said on 6/Sep/18Nash looks bang on 6’9” to me with 6’7-1/2” Oliver Miller. Factoring in the slight lean/slouch

RP said on 29/Aug/18Sotiris, I know Jim Justice...my father knows him personally. He worked for Jim & his father for about 20 years as a long haul truck driver for Blue Stone Farms. He’s a huge man. A legit 6’6”...but, over weight now. Probably has dipped under 6’6” by now I’m sure. I haven’t seen him myself in 9 going on 10 years. In 2008 he was still 6’6”.

dicksock said on 30/Apr/18I would say Sid was 6'7" at his peak and Hogan was 6'5.5". Today he is probably a weak 6'6".

samson said on 20/Apr/18Marco hogan was never 6'7 6'5 tops. Sid might have been 6'8 he looks 3 inches on hogan who is 6'5 tops

Marco said on 20/Apr/18Sid Is 6'9 And Hulk Hogan Is 6'7

Jim Hopper said on 15/Apr/18Watch the wrestlemaina fight with Hogan. 3" on Hogan.

Jim Hopper said on 14/Apr/18Imo was never under 6-7 peak. Peak in truth close to 6-8

Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 4/Apr/18A real 6ft8 dude would hold his own with Nash. Taker always looked significantly shorter like minimum 2in...

185 guy said on 2/Apr/18When he stood next to 6'2'' health slater he looked about 5-7 '' taller than Slater , billing Sid as 199 for peak is a absolute foolishness and Rob i didn't expected that from you ( Don't take it personally , now lets get on height ) so he might be 6'9'' for peak and billing him as 198 right now can be witty

Danimal said on 20/Mar/18RP said on 17/Mar/18
Danimal is correct! This video I've never scene! The wide shots truly show you Sid was a longer/taller person! Foot wear looked the same too. Sid was an easy 0.25" taller... his shoulders were an inch taller "easy" !!! Sid being a 1/2" taller there could be logically argued.
After seeing that, assuming no lifts for Sid...
Peak Sid: 6'7.25/ 6'7.5"
Peak Taker: 6'7"

I think Sid was just over 6'7" and Taker was just under 6'7" at that time. People still think that Taker was 6'8". He really wasn't.

Peak Taker: 6'7"

Danimal said on 12/Mar/18Sid was taller than Taker. Forward to 40 second mark: Click Here

RP said on 10/Mar/18MS is right !! You can't be 0.75" to 1" shorter than someone & have your nose be taller than their's in a staredown ! Impossible for Taker 6'7.5" & Sid 6'6.5, Rob??? Both men were 6'7.25" or 6'7" ...Most likely, both men 6'7"...IMO

MS said on 4/Mar/18Sid at Takers´s height (Sid is a hair nearer at the camera):Click Here 6-6,5 peak height for Sid is definetly too low!

height crazy- hogan was not 6"6 in the early 90s more like 6ft5 range.

he had lost height by that point

*******************************************

- there´s no proof supporting this, he looked the same next to meane gene as in the early eighties. He had no heightreducing surgeries at this point...
- As I pointed out very often I talk about evening height to fit with Robs 5´8" claim as an equalizer, it needs much more to lose eveningheight than herniated discs wich cause morningheightloss. Hogan was full on roids till the steroidskandal, so no reason to lose height, the body goes down if you stop roids or if you´re getting old/sick, Hogan looked good until the late nineties.

Honestly just watched old footage of him and hulk hogan teaming against Ric Flair and the undertaker. Hogan and sid before the match are standing side by side during an interview and sid is noticeably taller then hogan to the tune of about 2 inches. I took a look at there footwear. I want to say that sids black boots were maybe a tad chunkier then Hogan’s yellow but not by much of any at all. If hogan was in fact 6’6 sid looked 6’8. Now something has to give because there peak heights on this site are a half inch difference. Can’t be. I’m gonna say Sid was 6’7.25-6’7.5 peak and hogan between 6’5.5 and 6’6.

Logic sense, so regarding eveningheight Hogan peak was 6´5.25"-6´5.5".
There´s no reason he lost anything regarding eveningheigt in 1991-1992, IF then only a fraction...
Sid looked up to 2" taller, but had a bit more footwear, so the barefoot gap was 1.5"-1.75".
Hogan wasn´t under 6´5" eveningheight in 1991-92, so Rob has Sid at the lowest possible 6´6.5".

So being very fair to Hogan and give him 0.25" eveningheightloss in 1991, makes the gap between their peak eveningheight still at least 1.25".

RP said on 10/Feb/18Junior31 is correct! Peak Sid & Peak Taker were basically the exact same height! 6'7" to 6'7-1/4" & peak Hogan was 6'5-1/2" to 6'5-3/4". However, Hulk Hogan was not at his peak in 1992...'92 Hogan was 6'5-1/4" IMO @ best...6'5" to 6'5-1/4" ...I do believe that from 1984 to 1992...Hogan lost a 1/2" of height ...just my opinion.

M.E said on 30/Jan/18looked couple inches taller than Hogan

mike said on 30/Dec/17After some research I now believe sid was the same height as taker 6'7" maybe 6'8" tops, 2 inches taller than Hulk Hogan.It,s hard to be certain due to the footwear lifts etc..

mike said on 12/Dec/17Sid Eudy was about 2 inches shorter than 6'11" Kevin nash,6'9" for sid.

Johno said on 22/Nov/17Slightly shorter than Taker, probably 6'5.5-6'6

Anonymous said on 5/Nov/17Younger days in the 90s he was definitely about 6 Foot 8/6 Foot 9 but he is now 56 and not wrestled in years but bearing in mind his wwe character was sycho he had a lot of scrapes so my guess is he is about 6 Foot 6/6 Foot 7 now!!!

Jordan87 said on 2/Nov/17Ceej,

No, He eye level was higher than Takers, but the top of his Head was Below Takers. His mug shot also showed him at 6'5, and He didn't shrink 3", and if you below that or believe he was over 6'5 in his mug shot you should make sure you sent your list to santa this year.

Ceej said on 1/Nov/17His peak height is way too low. He was taller than the Undertaker in the 1990s. I mean, there is no dispute. He was quite obviously taller than the Undertaker in 1991-1993. His peak height was over 6’8.

Sam said on 12/Sep/17Sid was 6'8 early in his career today he is 6'6 1/2

Chris said on 25/Aug/17There was little difference between Sid and Taker. I'd say peak Sid had to be 6'7" if Taker was 6'7 1/2". Today, 6'6" seems on the mark.

Supermanfan380 said on 14/Aug/17I recall an interview with Kevin Nash, I'm sure many here are familiar with, where Nash mentioned when he first realized Wrestling was a work. He said it was when he saw Hulk Hogan in person walk right past him at an event, in 1989 or 1990, and that at that time hogan was only 6'4". Nash's words. Now obviously that was afternoon etc... ok Sid was a couple inches over hogan. 6'5.5" - 6'6" afternoon conservatively. About the same as contributor AliBaba. That is congruent with other of the conservative height estimates, almost as tall as UT.

By the way, Sid has a bigger frame than UT, height isn't everything. If you notice in stare downs Sid's shoulder height is taller. His skull is simply slightly wider and shorter than Undetaker's. UT may have a longer neck as well. The reality is a real 6'6" is a man tower.

dewie said on 11/Aug/17Sid 6ft7 taker 6ft8 barefoot

even said on 7/Jul/17peak 6'7
right now 6'6

Dill pickles said on 2/Jul/17Same height as taker just slightly under kane

Guanzo said on 8/Jun/17Taller than Undertaker

Slim said on 15/May/17Someone please tell me how to post pics on here from an iPhone. I have pictures with a true 6'7, 6'8 and 6'6.5 men. I work with them and one is the boxer Deontay Wilder. So... The Ben, those guys you talk about aren't 6'5 or 6'6 if you say they aren't that tall. Anyone who is 6'5 or 6'6 is VERY tall. I am 6'1.5.

Markus said on 14/Apr/17Sid with Mammun (Sid at 35, 90ies): Click Here
Sid compared with 6-7 to 6-8 Glen Jacobs (Sid in the 90ies): Click Here

I lost 5 mm up to the age of 30 without hard training and without wrestling. Sid, at the
age of 31, was about 2+" taller than a 6-5+ Hogan at Wrestlemania 8 (1992). Thus, Sid´s
peak height was clearly over 6-7, about 6-7,5 or more!

heightchecker34 said on 10/Apr/17Prime Sid Vicious was simply put... huge! You would be already considered very tall just by being in the 6'6 range, but then imagine adding all that muscle with that frame, and you are a literal god! I doubt a lot of people would mess with you... especially not with the "Psycho Sid" gimmick! I see a lot of people have him listed in his prime, around the 6'7 area... he easily wakes up over the 200 cm mark, but I don't think he maintains it throughout the day. I think 6'6.5" is precisely where he belongs. Nothing wrong with it, not like the majority of people could tell the difference anyhow. In the face down with Undertaker, he is wearing huge boots and really trying to stand as tall as possible, while Undertaker is maintaining a relaxed posture. There is no more than an inch between them, which proves Undertaker was 6'7.5" at his peak. There are a lot of 6'7 billed wrestlers who in fact are usually in the 6'5-6'6 range, at least Sid is close... Not that I would tell him to his face.. ( I at least have twice the brain! haha)

dewie said on 4/Mar/17Sid 6ft7.5 202cm taker 6ft8.5 204cm barefoot

The Ben said on 3/Mar/17He's in the U.K. Next weekend (if he shows). I'll get s pick with him, peak height barefoot I go 6'7, today he looks 6'6 ish.
I work with two guys who are 6'6 and 6'5.5 respectively and they really don't seem that tall.
I just can't see Sid looking as short as they do.
If he turns up I'll get a pic and post it.
I'm 6'.05 currently.

Kane and Abel said on 18/Feb/176'7 Peak for Sure, Rob?

GS1981 said on 13/Feb/17has anyone seen Sid Eudy stood next to Glen Jacobs? that would be another interesting comparison.

GS1981 said on 13/Feb/17He was always noticiabley shorter than Kevin Nash, and a fraction shorter than the Undertaker, i think 6ft 7 peak with lifted boots, 6ft 6 now.

Steve said on 18/Jan/17Least 6ft 7in to 6ft 7.5in peak. Can't see Sid under that peak. 199cm too low for peak height.

James B said on 5/Jan/17More width? Sid was a freaking muscular monster.

James B said on 4/Jan/17Rob do you agree that it would be impossible to tell apart a peak Sid from Braun Strowman?

Editor Rob: I think Braun has more width and maybe therefore could in fact look similar.

day day said on 30/Dec/16Hogan was 2" shorter in 92 so sid had to be 6'7 or 6'7.5"

Sean said on 29/Dec/16Rob, any possibility Sid's peak is 6'7"? Just not convinced he was as low as 6'6.5".

Danimal said on 29/Dec/16He was 6'7" peak.

The Ben said on 29/Dec/166'7 peak.
6'6 today.
It's obvious looking at a newer videos and photos that he's lost height in his upper back.
Im not sure if his leg snapping would effect his height in any way.

Shuvayu said on 29/Dec/16There was this scissors incident between Sid and Arn, & I remember comments from various wrestlers including Vader who said Sid was 6'7"

Guyster said on 4/Dec/16SID was always in the 6'7 range peak, current is 6'6, was always 3 inches below Nash, peak and current.

jtower27 said on 30/Nov/16Sid was probably half an inch taller than Undertaker who was taller than Hogan.

Typhoon said on 28/Nov/16Sid was 201 cm peak.

James B said on 24/Nov/16Hogan was 6'6 tops in 92

Frank R said on 22/Nov/16Back in 1992 in his role as a WWE referee, Sid "Justice" Eudy appeared to be 1 to 2 inches taller than Hulk Hogan who was a legit 6'7" in 1992. Since Hogan's back problems didn't become serious until the mid-2000s, it stands to reason that Sid was probably between 6'8" and 6'9" in 1992. Sid snapped his leg in 2001, and he's lost even more height with age. I'd estimate his height today at close to 6'7".

dewie said on 18/Nov/16Taker 6ft7 sid 6ft6 peak height barefoot

Attitude said on 15/Nov/16On Flair's podcast, Kevin Sullivan claimed prime Sid was 6'6" and Benoit as 5'7". So there you go.

James B said on 15/Oct/16Yeah I think sids posture can make him look 6'7

Powerhouse said on 14/Oct/16@James B At the time as a 10 year old kid i didn't pay attention to his height, It was looking at the picture which i hadn't seen in many years and comparing his height to my fathers height in the picture as they are standing right next to each other, my father is 5'7.5 and in the photo the top of his head looks right around Sid's shoulder, it looks like a foot difference . But Sid may be standing with better posture, and pictures can at times be deceiving. I wouldn't guess him under 6'7 though in any case.

James B said on 13/Oct/16To be fair though I can't get head my head around Sid being 6'6 range and Nash potentially 6'10 peak.

James B said on 13/Oct/16rob do you think poster powerhouse and the majority of people who vote for him to be 6'7 peak underestimates how huge a 6'6.5 guy with his build and posture can look?

Editor Rob: considering a guy like Cudmore says he measured 6ft 6.5, it's a massive height in person from the average 5ft 9 guy's perspective.

Powerhouse said on 12/Oct/16I met him at an autograph signing when i was a little kid me and my family got a picture with him. This was about 10 years ago I believe. I was just looking at the picture yesterday which motivated me to look up his page and comment. He was 110% taller than 6'6, he completely towered over my dad who is 5'7.5 by over a foot. I know pictures can be deceiving but he looked 6'8 minimum in the photo. I really feel he was 6'7 easily peak, he is a huge guy.

James B said on 9/Oct/16I saw a much on YouTube between Scott hall/Sid and there wasn't that much between them.

joe### said on 8/Oct/16it is in normal posture with hulk hogan
also seemed taller 2hinches that scott hall

Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 8/Oct/16Looked a decent 6ft7 in the 90's. Had a fair bit of height over the 6ft5 guys

James B said on 8/Oct/16Not to mention Sid didn't look like a 6'7 guy up against lex Luger but then you could say Luger was 6'3 1/2

James B said on 7/Oct/16It does seem that the majority of votes so far do favour Sid being minimum 6'6.5 but keep in mind though that he probably did force posture next guys like the undertaker a lot of the time. He forced good posture in past staredowms with Kevin Nash too.

I think a lot of people on this page don't realise how tall a 6'6-6'7 man can look with military posture. Put it this way if a peak Kevin Nash had stood as well as Sid people would be saying he was 6'11.

kingkong56 said on 5/Oct/16Also, comparison with Hogan puts Sid at a 6'7 peak, no doubt.
What do you guys think his peak weight was? 300-310 lbs?

dewie said on 5/Oct/16Taker 6ft8.25 sid 6ft7.5 peak

kingkong56 said on 3/Oct/16Got to be at least 6'7 peak. Looked too close in height to the deadman to be anything less. Not too sure about current height though.

The Ben said on 1/Oct/16Just over 6'7 peak.
6'6 today.

Michael said on 30/Sep/166-6,5 or below as Sid´s peak height? That is ruled out by tons of pics
with Barry Windham, The Undertaker or Hulk Hogan and comparisions
with others! Look at "JTJTphotos" or "Urgemonster", ...
Now: 6-6 (standing fully streched out), peak: 6-7,5.

Rucuja said on 21/Sep/16in the 80's nearly the same height these two. (+ - 1cm difference)

Aza said on 11/Aug/16Believe his peak was higher...6"7..barely any difference in stare downs in Taker whose peak was 6'7.5

dewie said on 10/Aug/16Rob now sid 6ft5.5 197cm taker 6ft6.5 199cm

@HeightcrazyRed6ft said on 8/Aug/16Yeah I was looking some wcw vids of Sid and can understand Robs 6´6.5" listing. I have him at 6´6.75" because I don´t see Taker under 6´7" and Sid was pretty close in 1989, 1991, 1997.

Sid looked shorter next to Hogan at Summerslam 1991 than he did at Wrestlemania 8, 8 month later.

Either Hogan lost a bit during that time or they worked on Sids boots.

To me Hogan looked 6´5" flat at WM8 and Sid 6´6.75". The supposed 2" gap I could never measure, always between 4cm and 4.5cm.

I agree Hogan at 6´5.5 would fit much better, but there are others Rob is also much more generous to compared to Sid.

Hill Billy Jim from 6´5.5" to 6´4.5", he was clearly an inch shorter than Hogan, shorter than Fralic and Spivey
Barry Windham from 6´5" to 6´4", he was easy an inch shorter than his 6´5" dad in equal footwear and around 2.5" shorter than Sid
Big Show from 7´0" to 6´11", much evidence posted this week
Andre from 7´0" to 6´11"
Nathan Jones from 6´10" to 6´9", was listed 6´9" as barefoot fighter
....

But their listings are all in a range they would measure sometimes during the day...

I agree the listings doesn´t fit wich eachother if we use an equalizer like eveningheight.

dicksock said on 6/Aug/16This site should change Hogan and Sid's peak heights to 6'5.5" and 6'7" respectively. To have their peak heights only .5" apart is a joke. It's so absurd, it's not even debatable. I dare anyone to argue that point.

dewie said on 4/Aug/16Taker 205cm sid 201cm hogan 196cm

Canson said on 3/Aug/16He would edge hogan in his prime. And I'd say by an inch or inch and a half easy. He was probably a full 200-201 for his prime. I can see him above the listing Rob has possibly by comparison. 6'6 today fits well. Hulk was 196-197 in tip top prime never a full 198cm tho

aaronious said on 6/Jul/16are you all blind? in every taker/sid staredown, they are the same exact height! 6'7" peak Sid, minimum!

James B said on 2/Jul/16Hogan might have not been over a strong 6'5 peak.

6'5.5 for Sid today I think is likely

The Ben said on 1/Jul/166'6 today sounds good.
It's crazy how different heights can look. I have a friend who's 6'6 and you'd swear he was 6'4 tops and another who's 6'7.5 and you'd swear he was 6'9. When they're together you can see there's only 1.5 in it.
It really can be incredibly hard to judge height.

Max said on 1/Jul/166'6" sounds bang on for his current height. Met him a while back and we stood the same height, same shoes. Really nice guy.

MikeV10 said on 30/Jun/16I think a 6'7 Peak height for Sid would fit better

bigmike74 said on 28/Jun/16There's pictures and video footage out there with Hogan and Sid that is not angles and panoramic sid had Hogan by 1.5" Max. If Sid looked 2" on Hogan it was because of thick soles not lifts. I think more realisticly he had Hogan by 1" barefoot. Which adds up with Robs listing. In the 90's Hogan was down to a 6'5.5 evening height and Sid was peak. If it would have been a 1980 Hogan they would look pretty damn close

LoganNoll1996 said on 16/Apr/16When were they eye-to-eye, Johan? Not trying to come off rude but Sid's eye level always appeared higher than Taker's. Is there an image where they are eye-to-eye in similar footwear. It always intrigues me because Sid is always tilting his head up(raising his eye level) and standing with perfect posture whenever staring down Taker whereas it's hard to tell if Taker is standing as straight given his tendency to adopt a looser posture(makes sense given his deadman gimmick).

Johan said on 16/Apr/16It doesn't add up Logan. There is video proof of them being eye to eye when both were young. Sometimes taker was slightly taller once he became the deadman. Not an inch in it thats for sure.

A 6'6.5" peak Sid makes Hogan no more than 6'4.75" peak.

LoganNoll1996 said on 15/Apr/16What leads you to believe a peak Taker is an inch taller than a peak Sid, Rob? Almost everyone on this site agrees Taker was only a fraction taller.

James B said on 15/Apr/16Sean said on 14/Apr/16
Sid 6'7" peak barefoot. No more, no less. I thought he had 1.5" on a peak 6'5.5" peak hogan. And 2 inches less than peak 6'9" Nash

He had 1.5 on a 6'5.5 hogan because of thicker wrestling boots and posture.

Sean said on 14/Apr/16Sid 6'7" peak barefoot. No more, no less. I thought he had 1.5" on a peak 6'5.5" peak hogan. And 2 inches less than peak 6'9" Nash

James B said on 1/Apr/16Watched Sid vs diesel on the Internet last night and they both looked similar height range. Hard to believe there was 3 inches between but then maybe 3 is not all that much?

6'2 said on 24/Mar/16cant belive sid isnt close to 68 peak had hogan in 91 by at least 2"' pob ust uner 6'7 today peak has to be taller

James B said on 23/Mar/16Yeah today might be heading towards 6'5

joe### said on 21/Mar/16humm,not look 6´7 with nash
i believe 6´6.75

HeightcrazyRed6ft said on 16/Mar/16Heyman is 5´9.25"-5´9.5", Sid looks 6´6.5"-6´7" next to him, Barry 6´4"-6´4.5".

The Ben said on 15/Mar/16Saw a recent video and Sid really looked a lot shorter, 6'5 maybe 6'6.
Such an impressive look back in the day.

Paul said on 13/Mar/16Paul Heyman, standing between Windham and Eudy is reportedly 5'11, also as 5'10.5 on IMDb.

Paul said on 12/Mar/16Sid peak height was was originally about 201-203cm depending of time of day.
Deduct about 2.5cm for the present and indeed was photographed at just over 198cm at about 3am one morning several years back when arrested.

James B said on 13/Feb/16I think in 91 Sid wore slightly larger than average wrestling boots at times which made him 6'7 legit which is why there looks a 2.5 inch difference between him and windham

Barry Windham I think was more 6'4.5 range than a full 6'5

Frank said on 6/Feb/16Sid´s peak height is underrated here.Click Here Rob has Windham at 6-5. The pic is from the mid 90ies.
Windham is even slightly behind Mamun and is already much taller than 5-8,25 Mamun.
And Sid is 2,5" taller than Barry here, 91: Click Here
Sid´s peak height must be 6-7,5+ In the pictures with Luger, Sid's head is leaning
slightly forward while Luger is fully stretched and Sid not.

Kenny said on 4/Feb/16Hi rob how tall would you say the other sid vicious is? from the s*x pistols
hes listed 6'2 on google

Editor Rob: I think maybe it is worth adding and putting the height he claimed out there...

dg said on 29/Jan/16Half an inch between peak Sid and Hogan is impossible. There's just no way.

Tuga said on 26/Jan/16HeightcrazyRed6ft said on 25/Jan/16
My point was, in your pic/vids there is no fair cameraangle or position, you can´t draw a right line if the camera is to high or in most of your pics way to low (1991 staredown card and 1997 fullbodypic - way to low camera for drawing lines on the top of their heads).
That only proves you failed - no offense just fact

Sorry Red but the only fact is that your post is full of excuses, all those camera angles always favouring taker! All those lifts inside outside everywhere in taker boots!!
But again lets give you half cm or even close 1 cm or even really 1 cm, there you go, 2 cms still possible there in the best comparison we have :D you fail LOL
Sorry no offense (really!) ;)

Just having fun, lets waste no more time on what me and you have posted and not agree, I´ll focus on the wm13 staredown where we both agree its the best comparison ;)
As for the taker chunky boots and sid inside lifts, that´s all on you, just YOUR assumptions, never claimed sid had lifts so don´t even try it :P

I´ll try to get some captures of footware for BOTH since I think I have that match in good quality.

"you´know Tuga ;) I give just my honest opinion on (Robs system)evening height, rest is fun and bring up evidence."

Yeah, its cool, Rob has sid 3 cms lower than taker :P :P :P

184.3cm (Night) said on 26/Jan/16HeightcrazyRed6ft said on 23/Jan/16

Clear to see that Taker is only a fraction taller, so Sid 6´6.75-6´7" and Taker 6´7"-6´7.25" peak
Today Sid looks 6´6"flat and Taker 6´6.5"

Seems good to me.

HeightcrazyRed6ft said on 25/Jan/16you´know Tuga ;) I give just my honest opinion on (Robs system)evening height, rest is fun and bring up evidence.

Again
My point was, in your pic/vids there is no fair cameraangle or position, you can´t draw a right line if the camera is to high or in most of your pics way to low (1991 staredown card and 1997 fullbodypic - way to low camera for drawing lines on the top of their heads).
That only proves you failed - no offense just fact

the times i posted aren´t exactly, just the start of the sequences, the camera is perfect in the sid/taker- Mankind/vader conflict.
Although in the 1991 ElDiablo staredown and the famous 1989 staredown.

Hogan tiptoeing at WM8 is clear to see on vid, your claimed Sid tiptoeing is as far just an excuse - no video evidence

Sid wasn´t in big footwear at WM13 clear to see his normal boots AND you proved with your vids that Sid couldn´t have inside lifts, because in cowboyboots he was maybe an inch under Nash and in Wrestlingboots always 2-2.5" shorter.

Taker never had 2cm advantage over sid during their battles between 1989 and 1997 not in cwa, not in uswa, not in all staredowns with a clear headlevel camera except WM13 where he clearly wore chunky boots.

As I always state my estimations in evening/low height, it´s sure Taker could hit 6´8" getting out of bed.

rest is just a bit friendly needle meant with humor and a reminder on past times ;)

Tuga said on 25/Jan/16James B said on 24/Jan/16
Do you guys realise how tall a 6'6 1/2 man with good posture and a build like sids can look?
It annoys me you wave around 6'7 and 6'7.5 for him but you underestimate how tall 6'6.5 is

It annoys me the "sole" argument you make for your estimate for sid is the lex luger staredown...
It annoys me that you ignore pics and videos posted where he looks taller than he did with luger...

Well actually...It doesn´t annoy me at all :D

James B said on 24/Jan/16

You´re still fighting for your 6´8" Undertaker or why do you need to bring up other staredowns with bad cameraangles...

Don´t give me the "your 6´8" Undertaker" talk, he´s as much "my" 6'8 Undertaker as he is "your" 6'7 or 6'7 1/4 Undertaker.

For me, and I really mean IMO taker was solid 2 cms taller peak, not quite 1 inch but close/about, now if he looks it in the best comparison we have, and I mean same posture (no tip toes sid) full body shot even considering your supposed footware advantage (you compared to taker´s other boots not sid but whatever) I´ll take 0.54 cm from taker (I´m quite the nice guy ;)) 2 cms is more than fair.

Now "other staredowns with bad cameraangles", you can´t be serious, you post a video with references to times where 1st aren´t even staring each other, and 2nd start to stare but are immediately interrupted, I post a long staredown from the same era both standing straight and I "need to bring"..what? Really? Sorry but that alone tells me you saw the height diferencial...

Click Here
Just another staredown...
Tip toes sid can look nearly same height, I´ve said it before, seriously, didn´t you mention hogan do the same against sid...

But I´m ok with your estimates, we´ve been at it for some time, the thing I still tell you is that you´re going at the absolutely minimum heights they could have been ;P

184.3cm (Night) said on 25/Jan/16If Sid was 6'6.5" peak James then Hogan was never 6'6. Barry Windham was never 6'5 etc.

Im starting to doubt taking pics from the ring as evidence after seeing a 6'4 Luke ( dressed as fake Kane) looking Glenn in the eye They obviously have huge boots for occasions.

Look up The Four Horsemen on youtube. Take a look at how huge Sid is nex to Ric flair, Barry Windham, Arn Anderson, they are all in suits/casual wear.

James B said on 24/Jan/16Do you guys realise how tall a 6'6 1/2 man with good posture and a build like sids can look?

You´re still fighting for your 6´8" Undertaker or why do you need to bring up other staredowns with bad cameraangles...

Taker in equal footwear and camera at headlevel never had an inch on Sid, except WM13 - so looking at the footwear of Takers first Wrestlemania headline shows they are chunky and unusual thick compared to the normal he wore against Kane Click Here

Clear to see that Taker is only a fraction taller, so Sid 6´6.75-6´7" and Taker 6´7"-6´7.25" peak
Today Sid looks 6´6"flat and Taker 6´6.5"

James B said on 18/Jan/16Sid was 6'6.5 not 6'7

Taker who was 6'7.25 in 1997 looks a bit taller in the video posted so no way is Sid a full 6'7

Tuga said on 15/Jan/16HeightcrazyRed6ft said on 7/Jan/16
Click Here
Taker without his WM13 lifts has no inch on Sid 5:50 and 8:40

What lifts? Here you go again...:P
Did you miss my post from 19 December with a long staredown between the 2 BOTH standing straight?Click HereClick Here
Where are the lifts? Same footware as in your video.

1992 WM8 Hogan was slightly tiptoeing and Sid still easy 1.5" taller

I agree! ;)

Sid could even look about 2 inches taller, but its safe to put hogan at 6'5 1/2 and Sid at a solid 6'7.
Nowaydays sid is problaby max 6'6 and hogan 6'3 1/2 max with his best posture IMO.

Frank said on 11/Jan/16...and has nothing to do with the reality.

James B said on 9/Jan/16
6'6.5 peak for Sid and solid 6'7 peak for undertaker I think is fine.

James B said on 9/Jan/166'6.5 peak for Sid and solid 6'7 peak for undertaker I think is fine.

James B said on 7/Jan/16Held his own against Kevin Nash in terms of size.

1992 WM8 Hogan was slightly tiptoeing and Sid still easy 1.5" taller making Hogan under 6´4.5".

Not impossible at all.

I got them slightly taller
Taker 6´7.25"
Sid 6´6.75
Hogan 6´5.25

peak

FN said on 1/Jan/16Undertaker is 6'9''. And Sid Vicious almost like Undertaker

James B said on 27/Dec/15CLEMENT said on 26/Dec/15
BIG SID JUSTICE IS 6'51/2"

6'5 1/2 today maybe but he was no less than 6'6 prime for sure

CLEMENT said on 26/Dec/15BIG SID JUSTICE IS 6'51/2"

James B said on 20/Dec/15sorry rob but I am just curious to ask this......

Since you think there is a chance undertaker was just 6ft7 peak and there was 1 inch between him and Sid at mania 97 that could incidcate just 6'6 for Sid?

Editor Rob: for both of them, that is the argument, they could be 6ft 7/6 or both a bit over that peak. For the moment I've been leaving them at their current marks.

Tuga said on 19/Dec/15Frank said on 16/Dec/15
Hogan and Sid with a peak height of 6-6? No way!

Totally agree.
I would put hogan at 6'5 1/2, but could have been 6'6, but eitherway hogan still looked 6'5 1/2 (just look at him with piper and tenta for ex)at the time he faced sid in wwf and no way they were equal in height, Now sid can make himself look taller than he is, but still he was minimum 6'7 and possible as tall as 6'7 1/2.

Some are using the luger staredown but do look at it closer, luger there has the posture advantage and looks to be "tiptoeing", there if luger isn´t more than 6'3 sid may look a bit under 6´7 but then we have also this staredown:Click Here
There he looks easly over 6'7...

Also look up his staredowns with nash, who peak height IMO was no less than 6'9 1/2, no way nash is over 3 inches taller.

Frank, now about sid being max 1/2 inch shorter than taker now I have my doubts, in dubious staredowns with tiptoeing and bad angles maybe, but good old near perfect staredowns I do believe it was about 1 inch:Click HereClick Here
The video:Click Here
Look at the end 13:40 min more or less.
You can see that in a long staredown sid has trouble in keeping his posture and even matching taker´s eye level and we know well taker has a longer forehead...

Well just to say he may have been "just" 6´7, but no way shorter than that, so hogan between 6'5 1/2 and 6'6, sid 6'7 to 6'7 1/2, nash 6'9 1/2, taker 6'8 are the estimates I have for these men.

Paul said on 17/Dec/15Peak height was 6'7.75 or so.

James B said on 16/Dec/15Rob just one more question.........could 6'5.5 be possible for sids current height or do you think he is still a full 6'6?

Editor Rob: not looked as much at how he looks in last couple of years to really tell

184.3cm (Night) said on 16/Dec/15Has more than a full head on Mamun who has excellent posture in that pic. I still think 6'7 is a better shout, he has edged Taker out before and viceversa.

I read his 6'8 claim years ago and just assumed he meant with shoes. Just seems a bit weird they would bill him at 6'10 if he was only in the 6'6 range. He held his own next to Nash in WcW.

Frank said on 16/Dec/15Hogan and Sid with a peak height of 6-6? No way!
6-6 as peak height for Sid, means that Hogan was under 6-3,5/6-4 in ´92: Click Here 6-6 peak Sid means Taker was 6-6,5 max in the 90ies.
Absolutly nothing fits. Look at this: Click Here Sid is about 2,5" taller than
Windham. Rob has Windham at 6-5! Sid and DiBiase: Click Here Ted DiBiase
at 6/6-1 in ´95? Everthing under 6-7 peak height for Sid is ruled out. His peak peak height was
more likely about 6-7,5.

James B said on 14/Dec/15Rob could you answer this

Might just 6ft6 have been his peak height?

Editor Rob: 6ft 6 is arguable...remember he did look no less than that when mamun's photo was here, I thought 6ft 6.5 fitted

James B said on 11/Dec/15Rob could 6'6.5 be too low for sids peak if Luger had thicker footware?

Then again Sid was shorter than 6'7 undertaker at mania 97

Editor Rob: I think 6.5 is ok for him, from all I've seen...but like anything, sometimes a guy looks taller/shorter than a listing.

184.3cm (Night) said on 6/Dec/15Easily 3.5 inches on Luger who had more footwear. Wasn't Luger billed 6'4 im sure he was. Is there some kind of evidence he was 6'3 flat?

6'2 said on 4/Dec/15As a rookie he was given 6'7 it wouldn't have been a billed height because it was just written by press. So he wasn't less than 6'7

6'2 said on 23/Oct/15I've always said taker 6'8 at most 6'8.5 peak sid was maybe half an inch shorter sid could be 6'8 peak but not shorter than 6'7 hogan in 92 I'd say was 6'5.5" maybe 6'5 he seemed slightly shorter than 6'6 earthquake

James B said on 16/Oct/156'2 said on 15/Oct/15
So James B how much of a difference do you reckon sid was taller than hogan? do you think kevin Nash Had 3.5" on sid more like 2 you still come out with a 6'8 Sid and no body will change my mind on 6'10 peak Nash cause that's exactly what he was

Sid stood 1.5 inches taller than hogan in the early 90s because he wore slightly thicker wrestling boots. Around that time I think hogan was no more than 6'5-6'6 range anyway. I'd say without his wrestling boots he'd be 1 inch taller than hogan.

I don't see a 6'8 sid next to lex Luger at road wild 1991 or at mania 97 when he squared up to undertaker. Honestly I'd go as far saying he looks 6'6.25 compared to them.

Of course you will try to validate that taker was a strong 6'9 and Luger was 6'5. Watch taker face nash at mania 95 and now way does he look 6'9.

6'2 said on 15/Oct/15So James B how much of a difference do you reckon sid was taller than hogan? do you think kevin Nash Had 3.5" on sid more like 2 you still come out with a 6'8 Sid and no body will change my mind on 6'10 peak Nash cause that's exactly what he was

James B said on 13/Oct/156'2 said on 8/Oct/15
Sid was a monster look at him to gene and wimpleman and the likes, he really towers over them he had hogan by nearly 3" in 1992 6'6.5 peak no way closer to 6'8 taker was 6'8.5 at his tallest there's no way hogan can be 6'6 if Sid is 6'6.5

Or maybe you are forgetting just how massive a 6'6.5 guy can look with his kind of physique in ring gear.

Also with hogan he wore thicker wrestling boots add to the fact as well hogan already started to lose height at that point.

6'2 said on 8/Oct/15Sid was a monster look at him to gene and wimpleman and the likes, he really towers over them he had hogan by nearly 3" in 1992 6'6.5 peak no way closer to 6'8 taker was 6'8.5 at his tallest there's no way hogan can be 6'6 if Sid is 6'6.5

Dmw said on 17/Sep/15From all of the pictures I have seen with these guys standing next to each other and other tall people who have similar size it looks to me like Sid was a legit 6'7"-6'7.5", Taker was 6'8", Hogan was 6'5.75- 6'6" prime, Studd and Sid were about the same height, and Andre was 7'.05" peak and 6' 10.5- 6'11" at the end of his career.

James B said on 9/Sep/15Rob could just 6ft6 peak be possible if he only had 3 on lex Luger?

six feet said on 30/Jul/15undertaker was 6 feet 6.5 inches without his boots.

6'2 said on 22/Jul/15Not sure on today for Sid but peak height has to be lifted he was literally a hair shorter than prime taker who was around 6'8-9"

Mighty_- said on 19/Jul/15There is just no way Sid was under 6'7 prime..
Imo he was 6'7.5" hence the 6'9.5" classical 2 inche exaggeration for the bigger guys..
A 6'6.5" just doesn't compute with Hogan's prime, even if Hogan already had lost height when they faced..
Anyway there is just way too much evidence for Sid being 6'7+ in his prime

VC said on 13/Jul/15@Clement, it's not surprising that taker & sid are shorter than nash an 1". That makes nash 6'6" & both taker and sid are 6'5".

Shuvayu said on 16/Jun/15Sid always looked bigger than taker because of his physique.... however in close contact taker had half an inch advantage... and yes sid's footwear had lifts... also wcw guys saw sid as a big instable 6'7" mental retard

James B said on 14/Jun/15Rob Big show being ruler of the world would have madr more sense

James B said on 7/Jun/15Rob was his 'ruler of the world' gimmick something to do with his stature? In real life he would feel t
that way being over 6'5 where he would always be the tallest. In WWE he was amongst the tallest but there were taller guys such kevin Nash and undertaker.

[Editor Rob: it was a kind of superiority gimmick, but yeah, when facing a bigger wrestler the idea isn't as impressive.]

joe 193cm night said on 29/May/15this listing to Sid does not fit mainly in hulk hogan listing at 6'6, Sid was always higher

CLEMENT said on 25/May/15really i dont have a clue...what you guys are trying...you guys mean to say taker is 6'7'' and sid is 6'6'' HOW????what do i see that big sid is atleast half inch taller than taker....and talking about kevin nash he is an strong 1 inch taller than taker....something really to think about taker 6'5''..sid 6'5and half ...and nash 6'6'',,,,,

Thomas said on 6/Apr/15Click Here
Only 6-6,5 peak height for Sid doesn´t fit at all.
This means Taker´s peak 6-7 and Ted DiBiase´s 6-1/6-1,5
and Windham´s 6-4 (Rob has him at 6-5!). Nonsense.

p said on 28/Mar/15played basket ball with kevin Nash he is a real 6' 11" for real.

James B said on 23/Mar/15Miko then Lex Luger was at least 6'3 then?

miko said on 19/Mar/15A 6'6 prime is completely impossible for Sid, he looked at times 2 inches taller than a peak Hogan an was nose to nose with 6'7+ Undertaker.

Taker was 6'7.5
Sid was 6'7
Hogan was 6'5/6'5.25

just because said on 18/Mar/15Could his leg break have affected his current height????Click Here pic of leg break not for the weak of heart

[Editor Rob: some small difference is possible, depends on extent of damage. But then his other leg would be same so it would effect his hips if one leg ended up shorter...why some people have genuine medical reason for small or large lifts.

Jenny's Father broke his hip/upper femur just falling in his house about 5 years back. He has special NHS elevator shoe for one of his feet, about a 2-inch lift on the outside of his shoes...all down to the break.]

James said on 9/Mar/15Rob do you think 198cm peak for Sid could be closer to the truth? You yourself pointed out that the difference could look even just 3 inches between him and lex luger.

6'6.25 could be on the money for Sid?

James said on 9/Mar/15HeightcrazyRed6ft says on 28/Feb/15
James B says on 19/Feb/15
Rob do you think lex Luger could have been a fraction over 6'3 peak?

Looks ~1.5" shorter than weak 6´5" Scott Hall

Luger has a unusual low eyelevel like Taker.

Taking all that into account indicates that Sid Eudy was closer to 6'6 flat peak since he had barely 3.5 on Lex Luger.

miko said on 11/Feb/15Sid claimed he was 6'7/280lbs aged 28 years old on his twitter account.

Sid wasn't an inch shorter than Taker, neither was he just half an inch taller than Hogan IMO.

James said on 9/Feb/15rob would you feel comfortable betting money on 6'6.5 over a full 6'7 for sid? Next to Windham he does look more than 1.5 inches taller.

HeightcrazyRed6ft said on 22/Jan/15Windham was never 6´5", Rob should take him down to 6´4" as he wasn´t taller than 6´4" Dustin Rhodes and always shorter than his 6´5"range Dad Bob Windham

Michael said on 19/Jan/15Rob has Windham at 1,96 (6-5) in a pic of ´96. Click Here andClick Here Today he is much shorter. Sid has about 6-7 cm (2,5") on Windham in ´91, so Sid´s peak of 6-6,5 (1,99) is ruled out. Click Here
Sid´s peak must be 6-7,5+ (2,02+). That makes Takers peak 6-8+ (2,03+).

cdk28 said on 18/Jan/15SID WAS 6'7" PEAK HEIGHT

6'2 said on 11/Jan/15putting hogan 6'4.5" prime is just not realistic he said he lost 3" of height over the years due to knee and back surgeries that wud put him at 6'1.5" and he had john cena by about 4-5" recently that wud put him at 5'8-9" putting referee earl hebner at 4'3 lol hogan 6'6" 80s by 92 was prob 6'5" shrtest possibly 6'3.5 after ops today around 6'4.5" looks to be right sid was 6'7 given the fact that spivey was a legit 6'6". taker prime 6'8". sid cant be anything under 6'7 he made harvey wippleman look like a child

Rob: How can you have Undertaker at 6'7.5" peak and Sid only 6'6.5" peak? It makes zero sense. They were virtually the same height in their primes. They were both 6'7". Please show me footage of Undertaker looking an inch taller than Sid. It doesn't exist.

Red: How can you than Hogan was only 6'4.5" in 1992? In 1995, he was at least 2" taller than solid 6'3" Lex Luger when Luger was in cowboy boots. You like to talk about how much of a lift Hogan got from his cowboy boots; what about Luger? Hogan was ~1.5" shorter than 6'7" Sid and 6'7" Undertaker in the early 90s. He was still at least 6'5" in 1992, guaranteed

I don´t see Hogan having two inches on Luger both in ringgear...
Click Here

________

Ok, well you're blatantly ignoring Luger's return in 1995. Hogan had 2" on solid 6'3" Luger when Luger was in cowboy boots...fact. In the video you posted, Hogan has around 2" on Luger. I don't know if you can tell, but Luger had much thicker heels than Hogan. Hogan's heels were flat in that video and Luger had thick heels. He probably had over .5" of footwear advantage. I guarantee Hogan was as least 6'5.5"-6'6" in his prime and Luger was 6'3"-6'3.5" in his prime.

James B said on 10/Jan/15Could look just 6'6 compared to Luger but then like rob said taller guys don't stand as tall when squaring up to shorter men.

Alex2 said on 10/Jan/15Anything below 6'7" peak for Sid is redicilous, Taker WAS a weak 6'8" peak there is too much evidence of this and Taker had around 0.5" on Sid. Rob this listing is wrong and I'm not sure why you've downgraded Sid. He was a strong 6'7" peak.

HeightcrazyRed6ft said on 9/Jan/15Yeah

peakheight
Taker 6´7.25"
Sid 6´6.75"
Lex Luger 6´3.25"

I couldn´t argue with...

Rob: How can you have Undertaker at 6'7.5" peak and Sid only 6'6.5" peak? It makes zero sense. They were virtually the same height in their primes. They were both 6'7". Please show me footage of Undertaker looking an inch taller than Sid. It doesn't exist.

Red: How can you than Hogan was only 6'4.5" in 1992? In 1995, he was at least 2" taller than solid 6'3" Lex Luger when Luger was in cowboy boots. You like to talk about how much of a lift Hogan got from his cowboy boots; what about Luger? Hogan was ~1.5" shorter than 6'7" Sid and 6'7" Undertaker in the early 90s. He was still at least 6'5" in 1992, guaranteed

I don´t see Hogan having two inches on Luger both in ringgear...Click Here

Luger 6´3" , Hogan 6´4.5" fits very good with this vid.

Sid had rather two inches on Hogan than 1.5" ...

miko said on 9/Jan/15In some instances it looked like Sid was edging Undertaker out, most of the time it looked VERY close.

Sid would have felt the taller man as his eyeline is higher plus he always raised his chin up.

Both were around 6'7. Maybe Taker was a hair over it and Sid a hair under.

Put it this way a prime 6'6.5 Sid is very bad news for the likes of Hogan as Hulk was around 1.5/2' shorter. Both men were in there primes too, no excuse for height loss.

Jadis said on 9/Jan/15Apart from JBL (1 in), all around 1 1/2 in below peak actual.

James B said on 8/Jan/15Could you imagine randy Orton being just 2.25 inches shorter than a peak sid? Or a 2014 Glenn Jacobs having a good 1 inch in him? A lot of wrestlers are not as big listed.

HeightcrazyRed6ft said on 6/Jan/15James B says on 4/Jan/15
6'6.25 peak is possible judging by how tall he looked next to lex Luger. Just goes to show how tall a proper 6'6 man is.

These days I think Sid is 6'5.5-6'6.

6'2 said on 3/Jan/15it was published early on in his career think in a match with kerry von erich that he stood 6'7" dont think this was a billed height in fact most geniune early articles out of wrestling promotions would be true like 6'7" stood and 7ft andre and 6'10" nash were published out of wrestling promotions or advertising

HeightcrazyRed6ft said on 1/Jan/15Duggan was 6´2" , 6´1.5" now
Lex Luger is a known 6´3" peak an Sid was max 3.5" taller in the middle of the ring

Paul said on 28/Dec/14There is a good video on YouTube featuring Sid, Undertaker, Paul Bearer, Jake Roberts, Jim Duggan and a King Cobra, 1991. You cam compare Duggan (a known 6'3) to Sid towards the end of the video. Sid looks nearly 5in taller. Jake (6'5 or just over) also looks shorter here as El Diablo so he would have been using thicker boots at other times, accounting for the fact he often appeared to be in the 6'6-7 range.
Actually here it is:

Alex2 said on 19/Dec/14Why has Sid been downgraded? Is this for real? He was EASILY a strong 6'7 prime if not 6'7.5 himself as Undertaker barely edged him out. Needs upgrading.

John B said on 16/Dec/14Hi Rob I say it's the real Sid it says he has a 121 thousand followers, it has this black and white profile pic of him tell me is that the real one or imposter account?

[Editor Rob: if it had any photo showing it was him, like some selfies or stuff like that it would be more believable. I would say it was a fake account.]

John B said on 15/Dec/14Tweeted Sid and asked what is his legit height to day he got back to me and said his 6'6 - 15 to 20 years ago he had to be a good 6'7 before that leg break..

[Editor Rob: is that a real sid or an imposter account?]

Mr T said on 13/Dec/14Undertaker had to look UP at Sid when they went toe-to-toe at Sid's Raw comeback in 1997 so that would put him close to 6' 8" in real life

6'2 said on 9/Dec/146'7" peak nothing less if anything 6'7.5"

Michael said on 6/Dec/14Sids peak must be more than 6-6,5. No comparision fits with this (peak) height. Look at the pics Sid with Mamun, this rules 6-6,5 out.

6'2 said on 4/Dec/14how can you only give a 0.5" difference peak sid more than 6'6" peak hogan something wrong there

HeightcrazyRed6ft said on 29/Nov/14Tuga says on 28/Nov/14
Now I agree with most of Rob´s listings, but peak hogan at 6'6 and peak sid at 6'6 1/2 doesn´t make sense at all
******************************************

Big AGREE ont this, but Hogan is to high, imo never taller than 6´5.25" at peak, 1992 6´4.75-6´5", 6´3.5" 2003

Tuga said on 28/Nov/14HeightcrazyRed6ft says on 26/Nov/14
Can´t see any difference, to count every cm you shouldn´t cut one from Mabels pivot with your line 8Y :))

Come on Red, that´s to show off the difference after rotating the picture, just measure the line´s top :P

If there would be a valid point for 6´8" Taker I´m sure Rob would list him at 6´8" peak but there´s to much evidence he wasn´t that tall.

Glad you mention this, going back a few years people here talked about taker in ministry days looking 6'9 because of lifts, which was proven wrong.
Now obviously people will look in any certain moment taller or shorter than they are, why choose the shortest possible moments??

Does this look like 6'7 vs 7'?Click Here
I do realise taker has better posture and big show unlike his ring attire doesn´t have footware advantage, also the cut out doesn´t work perfectly since it would have to be scaled, you did the same with taker and khali and things don´t quite match up...
I do believe peak show had 4 inches on peak taker, 6'8 vs 7' then.

Non peak taker is nearly his height, put him with same posture as kane and he is at least same height, we know very well that kane still has footware advantage, so if taker was 6'7 peak, non peak 6'6 1/2(?)at the most, kane would problaby be 6'6 flat, if taker lost more height...we better not go there.

Now I agree with most of Rob´s listings, but peak hogan at 6'6 and peak sid at 6'6 1/2 doesn´t make sense at all, in his mega posture he would pull 2 inches over hogan, even hogan down a bit peak at 6'5 1/2 would make sid 6'7 1/2, so its a safe bet sid was not under 6'7 and could look 6'7 1/2, or how tall peak sting was for you?Click Here

Now I´m not sure how much taker has lost, but unfortuanetly he´s far from his best shape, still 6'7 is minimum he looked next to lesnar still...

Yes you can pic times where they look shorter, but this estimates are like having them as straight as possible for measurements purposes ;)

184.3cm said on 27/Nov/14Just noticed this listing and erm i dont know about a 6'6.5 peak. This guy was mostly billed 6'10 and had easy height on a peak Hogan i would go with 6'7 range peak unless there is an official measurement thats been posted before?

No its not :P

We´re discussing to the cm here, so its a valid point, not

Can´t see any difference, to count every cm you shouldn´t cut one from Mabels pivot with your line 8Y :)) Click Here

Seriously I did a tilt correction in my old pic but not as much as you because we have no fix point to use, the frame doesn´t really work, how was the cam for the full pic tilted? We can´t say for sure. I went with what´s visible of their posture to evaluate the right(imo) tilt.

In your pic it´s the same outcome, Nash has 2.5-3 inches on Mabel, Nash had 1.75-2" on Taker.

Nash 6´9"
Mabel 6´6-6´6.5" with bigger footwear
Taker 6´7-6´7.25"

If there would be a valid point for 6´8" Taker I´m sure Rob would list him at 6´8" peak but there´s to much evidence he wasn´t that tall.

We´re discussing to the cm here, so its a valid point, not overwhelming since its not that much of a difference ( I did say a bit:P) but its still far from being an silly excuse ;)

Mabel was 6´6" and that´s what he looks there with a half inch footwearadvantage.

HeightcrazyRed6ft said on 24/Nov/14Tuga says on 24/Nov/14
But now I see that you´re already considering peak nash at under 6'9

Posted this already at Nash´s page, I doubt Nash was peak starting wrestling.
He for sure cleared 6´9" as a young man.

As Big Daddy Cool he didn´t look over 6´9" next to Kareem.
As Vinnie Vegas he didn´t look more than an inch over 6´7.5"-6´8" Tyler Mane.
Tyler Mane looked taller next to Nash than Taker ever did.

I go with low height and my estimations are fitting with what we can see out of the ring.

Takers evening peak wasn´t under 6´7" and not over 6´7.5"
Therefore Sid´s evening peak between 6´6.5" and 6´7"
Nash wasn´t less than 1.5" taller than Taker and not more than 2"
Wich fits with Nash being 2"-2.5" taller than Sid.

I´m still not sure but for peakheight I could see Taker edging Kane atm.

Tuga said on 24/Nov/14Red, the mabel diesel pic has to be roted a bit, I own the wwf magazine it came from, the pic is not straight, check your original pic.

About your ministry pic, taker also is leaning down and most of all mabel is closer to the camera, just look at his head size there!You can pause that video to give taker great advantage or to give visera the advantage.
Example: pause yt video at 0,34 sec, advantage taker :D
I´ll admit their kotr staredown could be better (raise the head mabel!!) but its still the best we´ve got so far.

But now I see that you´re already considering peak nash at under 6'9 so we better stop here, in a few years he´ll be under 6' LOL ;)

"low camera angles are useless or I measure the gap in this pic too ;) Click Here"

Now this is pointless (no, its part of the fun ;)), but 2 can play that game:Click Here
Sid struggles to even match taker´s ankle! :P
